A diabetes nurse’s pioneering case study which used ultrasounds to scan injection sites to help people with diabetes has been showcased at an international conference.

The work of Linda Clapham, a diabetes specialist nurse at Wharfedale Hospital in Leeds, was presented by Debbie Hicks a nurse consultant at Enfield, London at the Forum for Injection Technique and Therapy Expert Recommendations (FITTER) congress in October.

Linda’s published case study showed how the use of ultrasounds to scan injection sites was able to identify safe areas for people with diabetes to inject themselves.

I wanted to read about the ultrasound scanning - seems like its a good idea, but there's nothing about it really only in passing! Disappointed.
